Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy that involves a psychologist, therapist, or certified addiction specialist trained in group therapy who leads a therapy session with a group of individuals who are ideally all struggling with similar issues. Group therapy in Hammond can take place in a rehab facility, an office, a church, or similar place where this type of meeting can take place without disturbance. Group therapy is typically a vital component of drug and alcohol recovery.
If someone is receiving treatment for substance abuse and addiction, group therapy and individualized therapy, when combined, can provide recovery in various ways. Group therapy can help an individual in recovery know that they are not alone and have support for their problems, frustrations, troubles, challenges, etc. It can also help people overcome social anxiety as well, because it can be difficult for someone to open up about personal issues to people they really don't even know. Once the social awkwardness has gone away, people in group therapy achieve confidence and friendliness with people who are experiencing similar problems. And even more so, they can share in each other's progress and help one another make the positive improvements they need to make to recover by being involved in a strong support system.
